Description
Weiping Su and co-authors follow what happens to painful bone swelling in the hip after a drilling procedure plus a graft of the patient's own marrow concentrate. Their 2025 study reviews 28 patients covering 40 hip joints treated between 2021 and 2023. Scans and hip scores were tracked before surgery and up to a year after.
The swollen area on scans shrank dramatically within three months, from about 954 to 162 square millimeters on average. Pain scores fell from 4.86 to 1.86 at three months and reached 1.0 by a year. Hip function scores climbed from 48 to 86 over the same span. Two patients saw the swelling vanish fully, though three joints at a middling disease stage collapsed.
